It’s now possible to send automatic orders based on additional calculation events, regardless of the ...

Re: Different trades in live vs backtest
this will never be solved this problem has existed from day 1.
it is impossible to trade what you see as in an indicator.
the solution is to send the order from a indicator to a file and have a custom order entry system execute the trades for you.

So if my order condition is met why can I not send a order to the broker. Why are range bars stuck to OHLC?
